Hosea (Come Back to Me)
Performed by Kairy Marquez

Come back to me with all your heart
Don't let fear keep us apart
Trees do bend though straight and tall
So must we to others' call

Long have I waited for
Your coming home to me
And living deeply our new lives

The wilderness will lead you
To the place where I will speak
Integrity and justice
With tenderness
You shall know.

Long have I waited for
Your coming home to me
And living deeply our new lives

Beyond The Days
by Fr. Ricky Manalo   
Performed by the Sunday 7pm Choir

Beyond the days of hope and mystery
we see a light of faith renewed,
and in our longing we thirst for guidance
to walk with you day by day.

Forty days and nights,
you guide the steps of our journey.
May your presence be felt
in the whisper of your voice.

Beyond the days of hope and mystery
we see a light of faith renewed,
and in our longing we thirst for guidance
to walk with you day by day.

Not on bread alone
are we to walk on this journey.
Speak the words that give life
to the yearnings of our hearts.

Beyond the days of hope and mystery
we see a light of faith renewed,
and in our longing we thirst for guidance
to walk with you day by day.

MATTHEW 17: 1-9

Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 

While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!”

When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus.

The Bible reminds us that with God nothing is impossible. Every closed door, every barren season, every shattered dream can be turned into a testimony of divine intervention. Today, as we lift our hearts in prayer, we are not praying to a weak God or a distant God.

We are praying to the miracle worker, the way maker, the one who parts seas, raises the dead, and turns impossibilities into reality. If you are standing in front of an impossible situation this day, prepare your heart, because the God who cannot fail is about to step in. Declare He can work wonders...

LENTEN ANTIPHON
- Mother Mary, walk with me this Lent that my heart may be one with yours. Lead me closer to God, that I too may say, “Let it be done to me according to Your Word.”

SCRIPTURE
- John 18:37

"So Pilate said to him, ‘Then you are a king?’ Jesus answered, ‘You say I am a king. For this I was born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice.’”
